Summary
A vortex of social media activity ensued after Tuesday's podcast with Max Olson (which can be found in your feed). Multiple ex-Colorado players spoke with Max about their experience being cut from the program when Deion Sanders took over, and those thoughts were shared on this show. Since then, Deion and Shedeur Sanders have responded to some of those former players who aired their thoughts on social media. Ari Wasserman and Sam Khan Jr. weigh in on what has been said by Prime and others. But, before then, Ari and Sam explain why House vs. NCAA is important to you as a CFB fan. They also acquaint you with draft-eligible players that you need to know.
Rundown:
- House vs NCAA & how it could completely change CFB (2:00)
- Top offensive draft-eligible players (10:00)
- Top defensive draft-eligible players (24:00)
- Who's going to pop-off this season? (34:00)
- Tin Hat Ari (46:00)
- "Bush League" Deion Sanders (48:15)
